The diet is lower in fat, slightly higher in carbohydrates for energy for workouts, and higher in protein for muscle repair and building. The idea behind the food choices were to bulk up on a variety of fruits/fruit juices and veggies since they will be high antioxidant, increase satiety from soluble/insoluble fiber, and they are naturally low fat. The protein is not all from meat either. While a good percentage of it is from lean meats, it is also from low fat and fat free dairy and whole grains. This gives a wide variety of proteins for the various bodily needs. With the higher protein content from the meals, there is no need for extra supplementation!
